Director Wim Wenders has agreed with actress Nastassja Kinski to remove a nude scene from the 1975 film "Falsche Bewegung." According to a joint statement published on the website of the Wenders Foundation, a shot in which Kinski, then thirteen years old, was shown with her upper body exposed is to be cut from the film.

The dispute over the scene lasted for years. According to German media, Kinski had been pushing for its removal for around 15 years, since the shot was filmed while she was a minor. Wenders has now granted her request and also apologized to her. The agreement means that the well-known film associated with New German Cinema will lose one of its distinctive scenes.

Both parties stated in the joint declaration that they share an interest in ensuring that future memory of the film is not tied to the dispute over the nudity of the underage actress. Available information indicates that the edit concerns this specific scene, not a broader intervention in the film. Die Zeit ↗
The case also raises a broader question of how film history should deal with footage that was created in a different legal and social context but is judged more strictly today, particularly regarding the depiction of minors. Further developments will depend on how the edited version of the film is distributed and screened.
